Manchester United didn’t should play notably nicely to beat Crystal Palace on Sunday, and Eagles boss Oliver Glasner moaned afterwards in regards to the membership’s failure to convey gamers in over the summer season.
When a supervisor does that, I begin to marvel how lengthy he’ll dangle round. I get it – it’s a must to go away when your inventory is excessive, and Glasner’s actually is in the mean time.
He’s proper, although, as a result of their squad is stretched. Glasner should have been listening to the Monday Night time Membership as a result of I have been saying the identical factor because the begin of the season, about how they will come a cropper as a result of it is extremely tough to compete with out that depth.
I nonetheless assume Palace will win this recreation although, as a result of Burnley are in a little bit of hassle.
Scott Parker’s aspect do not rating sufficient objectives so it was actual blow for them to get stage at Brentford with 5 minutes to go on Saturday and nonetheless get nothing from the sport.
I’ve a sense they’ll battle away right here too, after which see Palace sneak it late on.
Sutton’s prediction: 0-1
Felix’s prediction: Palace even have performed a great deal of video games and I had a sense they might wrestle in opposition to Manchester United earlier than they misplaced on Sunday. I nonetheless assume they’ll win this one although. It seems like Burnley ship objectives on the finish of video games, as a result of they do not fairly final the tempo. 1-3
Felix on being at Wembley when Palace received final season’s FA Cup: I had so many mad journeys and adventures within the guide, and it virtually turned about discovering the sport that had the story behind it that had nothing to do with soccer, however was in regards to the individuals I met and even me personally.
However I do should say that being among the many Palace followers at Wembley was actually the closest factor I’ve seen to an precise spiritual expertise.
The sense that they have been doing one thing by successful their first main trophy that their dad and mom or grandparents who supported Palace could not see, was unimaginable. It captured the very essence of the guide as a result of I used to be in search of the magic of the FA Cup and I discovered it proper there. Even speaking about it now, I nonetheless get shivers.
AI’s prediction: 1-1
